Abstract: | Daily dietary rubidium intake in Belgium was evaluated by duplicate portion sampling. Sample destruction in a microwave oven
and atomic absorption spectrometric analysis were used to measure this element. The mean intake of 2.2 ±0.3 mg/day is similar
to levels found for most other countries. Since the necessity of this element for humans remains unproven, the intake level
could not be compared to a recommended range for a safe and adequate dietary intake.
